Panthers 2018 training camp position battle: Cornerback

Today the Panthers begin their 2018 training camp schedule with a practice down at Wofford College. There are several interesting position battles to watch the next several weeks, but none of them may be as important as the one at cornerback.

No position saw as much turnover this offseason, and it’s one of the roster’s weakest points.

Here’s a review of who is competing for a spot this year at corner.

Bradberry is entering a critical third season with the Panthers. In 29 career NFL games, he’s posted four interceptions and 20 passes defensed to go with 113 tackles. Bradberry’s spot on the 53-man roster is secure for this year, but he won’t be the team’s top cornerback for much longer if he can’t improve his coverage and ball skills. There’s a couple of new corners in town who will be gunning for his playing time.
